Frosted : Mist, Paint & Ink

Good morning all, 

Today we will have another challenge at Frosted designs. 

And the challenge is Mist, Paint & Ink!

This is my take on this challenge:

Mist: I used brown mist around the picture on the design paper.

Paint: I used Gesso as an extra border on the edges and on the birdcage.

Inkt: I used inked on the both chipboard embellishments. And i dabbed it on doily borders.

As some of you might have noticed, i always try to combine my gifts with the challenges

 that i have from the different DT teams that i am in. 

So this time i made this small shadow frame for a couple that just got married 

a few weeks ago on the beautiful island of Rhodes. 

The whole frame has a vintage, shabby chic look. 

Below you can see some  close up pictures for the details. 

Using the same paper, pearls, flowers, i made a matching card. 

Well ladies, i wish you good luck with the challenge. 

You have two weeks to add your creation on the Frosted designs blog. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day ( and weekend)!

"Cafe du Paris" Berry71blue

Good morning Ladies, 

Today i will share my post for Berry71Blue

Remember this Beautiful tag:

This is what i thought when looking at the tag: 

I was imagining a girl shopping around in Paris, passing all the big fashion houses and trying on every single dress that she liked. Because she had a date at Cafe de Paris and she wanted to look Gorgeous!

So i made this frame page, if you look at it, i see a window display. 

After trying so many dresses she finally found the ONE.

The tag, dress doll and flowers are glued on the outside of the frame, as it was a thin frame. 

Close up of the paparazzi following her around ..........

This is my project for this month and my thought process with it. 

Good luck with the Mini Challenge and enjoy your day.

Thank you, 

Channa

PS: Sorry for the lightning on the pictures. The sun is shining here in Greece and i could not avoid it ;-)

The Big 50!

"Forty is the old age of youth; fifty is the youth of old age"

Today is the birthday of my aunt Carla, who is a true follower of my blog. 

It is her 50th birthday. For this special reason i made her a frame card

 in vintage style. I am not sure if she will still follow my blog after this post, making 

it public to the world that she is 50 years young???

 But i hope she likes the card that i made her. 

Van Harte Gefeliciteerd en nog vele jaren... 

 Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!
